US Democratic presidential contender Hillary Clinton’s support for a no-fly zone over Syria is an attempt to “gain relevance” and appeal to American war hawks, says a counter-terrorism analyst.
“Hillary Clinton is in a dire predicament in her presidential ambitions, quickly evaporating and disappearing into the sunshine of revelations of what she has done and who she really is,” Scott Bennett said on Wednesday.
The former US Army psychological warfare officer made the comments in reaction to Clinton’s remarks in which she expressed support for the idea of a no-fly zone over Syria with Russia’s help.
“I think it’s complicated and the Russians would have to be part of it, or it wouldn’t work,” Clinton said Tuesday at a campaign event in Davenport, Iowa.
Bennett told Press TV he believes Clinton has become irrelevant in the eyes of the American public.
“She is desperately flailing about in trying to gain relevance,” he said. “She is trying to gain the support of American war hawks.”
He said Clinton is trying to position herself as a “strong voice” for the US-backed militants crossing borders into the Arab country, while seeking to appeal to a liberal base who favor close ties with Russia.
“They know Russia is necessary and they are beginning to see increasingly that Russia holds the key to stabilizing the Middle East,” Bennett added.
President Barack Obama on Friday rejected the idea of a no-fly zone over Syria, dismissing Clinton’s statement as campaign rhetoric
“I think Hillary Clinton would be the first to say that when you’re sitting in the seat that I’m sitting in in the situation room, things look a little bit different. Because she’s been right there next to me,” he told reporters.
Russia has also rebuffed calls for a no-fly zone inside Syria because, according to the country’s Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Bogdanov, it violates the UN Charter and breaches Syria’s sovereignty.

Eleventh hour discussions; the US Senate is in a special session to decide on legislation that would allow the National Security Agency to continue domestic spying.

Senators have previously failed to decide the fate of key provisions of the controversial Patriot Act that will expire at midnight. The current provisions allow for mass collection of phone records of tens of millions of Americans by the National Security Agency. The existence of the NSA’s spying program was revealed by former contractor Edward Snowden back in 20-13, prompting calls for reform. A court has already ruled the practice illegal. But the new reform will not stop the collection of American’s phone data and instead will give the spying power to telecom companies. The house has already backed the bill.

Press TV has conducted an interview with Stew Webb, a columnist and US federal whistle-blower, in Kansas City, to get his take on the scandalous collaboration between the German Intelligence Agency (BND) and the US’s National Security Agency (NSA).

The following is a rough transcription of the interview.

Press TV: It seems the scandal is getting deeper as far as the collaboration between the German intelligence agencies goes as well as the NSA. What do you make of it, specifically now that it has moved beyond just individuals to governments and even corporations?

Webb: Well, first of all, the spying has always been here and will continue to be here, but here is where the results are. In 1991, George Herbert Walker Bush installed a backdoor trap in what was known as the Inslaw/the Promise Software and he sold it to the German intelligence agencies, he sold it to the French, he sold it to everybody worldwide that would buy it. And it allowed the back door for the NSA to be a spy on anyone, anywhere in the world.

Now Israel, they installed in 1991 in an NSA satellite base and allowed Israel – which uses espionage against the United States of America – they allowed them to be able to hit into our spy agencies network. And as a result of that, everybody worldwide is spied upon. If they would just get rid of their Inslaw, their Promise Software that they bought from daddy Bush in 1991, it would stop the spying worldwide; otherwise, it is not going to stop.

Press TV: Right, now Mr. Webb, considering it can be done, the stopping of the spying, the fact that governments around the world haven’t taken that step goes to show some form of collusion, wouldn’t you agree?

Webb: I would agree, the new world order is upon us, this is put, and this is their agenda, is one more government eventually, with the capital being in Jerusalem. Now, I might add a couple of things.

The spying over here is so ridiculous. Federal courts have ruled – several of them, appeal courts – that it is illegal spying on American people, and yet it continues. And the NSA satellite base that they have in Utah is beyond belief the amount of computers six floors below ground and it’s run by private contractors tied to daddy Bush, I call him George Herbert Walker Bush, and this has to stop.

We ourselves have been inundated. The media over here is so fake. We do not have any real media. They own and control the media. As an example, six of us, columnists on Veterans Today, recently left because we found out that this is an FBI troll operation run by Gordon Duff, also known as Bob Foote.

And it is just unbelievable, even the alternative so-called media over here is so infiltrated and the garbage comes out to the American people is unreal. Now, we are trying to create a network here of independent journalists and former CIA personnel that are telling the truth and have been, http://www.veteranstruthnetwork.com and of course I have my site, http://www.stewwebb.com

U-S intelligence agencies have warned that the release of a Senate report
about the CIA’s torture methods will cause what they say violence and deaths abroad.

The chairman of the House Intelligence Committee said U-S intelligence agencies
AND foreign governments have said privately that the report will be used by
extremists to incite violence. Mike Rogers said the violence is likely to cost lives.
The document dubbed “torture report” deals with CIA’s interrogation methods and use
of torture during Bush administration’s so-called war on terror.
The warning was also issued by Secretary of State John Kerry.
He told the Senate Intelligence Committee that the report could spark
new violence in the Middle East and endanger US hostages there.

The head of the FBI says he understands why people worry about the scope of the government’s powers, and in fact, he agrees with them.

“I believe people should be suspicious of government power. I am,” Director James Comey told the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday morning.

“I think this country was founded by people who were worried about government power so they divided it among three branches,” he added.

In the months since Edward Snowden leaked documents detailing the country’s intelligence programs, Comey said that “it’s hard for me, sometimes, to find the space and time to talk about what I do and why I do it.”

Though the controversial surveillance raised privacy concerns and made people fret that the government was snooping on their behavior, Comey said that the FBI’s programs are run responsibly. He added that those operations had also helped to track down kidnappers and save children.

Comey assumed his top post shortly after the Snowden revelations came to light last summer. While much of the public’s outrage has focused on activities at the National Security Agency, the FBI has also come under fire for its use of national security letters and operations to track foreign terrorists operating in the United States.

One of those efforts, which allows the government to track people outside the US who may be plotting terror attacks, is “extraordinarily valuable,” Comey told senators on the panel.

The efforts, which are authorized under Section 702 of the FISA Amendments Act, include a program called PRISM that taps into data networks at major Web companies like Google, Facebook and Skype. From there, agents can look at photos, emails and other documents people upload.

The FBI’s national security letters, which Comey said were not used to obtain bulk quantities of information about people, require banks, phone companies, Internet service providers and other firms to hand over details about their customers.

Recipients of the letters are largely prohibited from revealing details about the letters they get, which critics say amounts to a “gag order.”

Legislation is advancing in the House and Senate that would rein in those and other government data collection programs.

The House is scheduled to vote on the bill, called the USA Freedom Act, on Thursday, but some privacy advocates have worried that it has been overly watered down in recent weeks.

Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), who introduced the upper chamber’s version of the surveillance reform bill, said on Wednesday that he was pleased by the House’s progress.

Newly leaked classified documents have revealed more about the spying activities of the US National Security Agency and its British counterpart, the GCHQ.
The latest revelations by whistleblower Edward Snowden show that the NSA and GCHQ have relied on data scooped up from the so-called leaky smartphone applications. according to a document published by The New York Times and The Guardian, the two intelligence agencies have been using applications such as Angry Birds games and Google Maps to collect swaths of personal data about users’ age, daily whereabouts, address books, and much more. It also exposed the fact that the mobile app initiative between the two spy agencies has been up and running since 2007. Previous reports have revealed the extent of the US and British governments’ mobile data collection, which has a global reach.

The number of nuclear missile officers under investigation by the US Air Force over allegations of cheating has doubled from 34 initially to several dozen, officials said.

An Air Force spokesman confirmed the increase Tuesday but refused to mention a precise number in order “to protect the integrity of the investigation.”

Earlier this month, the 34 officers, who were in charge of launching nuclear missiles, were suspended either for cheating on a key monthly proficiency test last year or for knowing about the cheating but failing to report it.

On January 15, the Air Force said it discovered that one missile officer at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana had shared test questions with 16 other officers. Another 17 confessed to knowing about the misconduct but did not report it.

The cheating was discovered during a previously-announced investigation into drug possession by 11 officers at some other Air Force bases.

The eleven officers at six military bases were investigated over allegations of possessing illegal drugs. A number of lieutenants and a captain at bases in the United States and Britain were implicated in the investigation.

The cheating scandal is the latest in a series of Air Force nuclear stumbles, which include deliberate violations of safety rules, failures of inspections and breakdowns in training.

Last month, the head of the Air Force’s intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) fleet was fired for being repeatedly drunk and showing inappropriate behavior during an official visit to Russia this past summer.

Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel last week ordered a full review of the US nuclear force. “Personnel failures within this force threaten to jeopardize the trust the American people have placed in us to keep our nuclear weapons safe and secure,” he said. AT/HJ

Senator Menendez under investigation for ties to fugitive bankers

[ Editors Note: Surprise, surprise…up pops the annoucement of what has had to be a long running investigation, and a sensitive one with a Democratic White house having a criminal investigation of an well known senator.

Are we finally seeing some pay back by Obama for those working with AIPAC to punish him for not towing the AIPAC line on Syria and Iran?

What is not reported in the Press TV piece below is the current corruption inside Congress is not limited to being sock puppets for the the Jewish Lobby crowd. AIPAC rents out their sock puppets to others to help cover the costs.

Menenedez seems to have helped two major bank fraud guys, who snagged $660 million, to a soft landing here in the land of opportunity. Menendez’s office claims the Isaias brothers were politically persecuted. Isn’t that special ?

The drug cartels are major political funders of Congress now, compliments of the Bush era Supreme Court that opened the flood gates for overseas donators…and come they did. Everybody that needs a favor, like protection from hiding offshore oil company profits, knows where to where to go to get things taken care of.

The senators who sided with AIPAC against Obama to torpedo the Iran nuclear talks are being funding by gambling interests like Sheldon Adelson, and oil barron manipulators like the Koch brothers who have paid out a bundle to keep oil prices way higher than real demand would support.

AIPAC is the traffic cop for a lot of these deals, everything from organ theft, prostitution and a conduit for the cartel money. The Intel community has watched this in horror for years now, thinking that it could not get worse, but it did. That was mostly due to the Lobby folks being able to offer effectively immunity for anybody that played ball with them. It is called political obstruction of justice.

So that is the big mystery question for us. Why Mendendez, and why now…when there were so many to pick from, including Republicans who excel in their own corruption? AIPAC is an equal opportunity employer.

You can bet we will be beating the bushes to find out a little more about this. And I will wager that our esteemed Congress will have looked upon William and Roberto Isaias and their $660 million dollars as a pinata from heaven… Jim W. Dean ]

The Brothers Isaias – Big time bank robbers, says Ecuador

US Senator Robert Menendez, the key architect of unilateral sanctions against Iran, is under criminal investigation for his connection with two Florida businessmen who are fugitives from Ecuador, a report says.

According to WNBC, the Justice Department is investigating the hawkish senator’s ties to brothers William and Roberto Isaias, who are wanted in Ecuador for embezzlement.

The Isaias brothers, who ran Ecuador’s largest bank, were convicted of embezzling more than $660 million during Ecuador’s banking crisis in 1999. They moved to the US in 2000.

The Department of Justice is investigating whether Menendez, the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, intervened with Homeland Security and the State Department to help the duo escape extradition, the report said.

The office of Sen. Menendez has denied the report.

“Our office works each year with literally hundreds of individuals and families from across the country who are seeking help with the immigration process,” Menendez’s communications director Tricia Enright told the Hill in an email. “We review each and every request we receive, and if we feel any inquiry is appropriate, we make it.”

“In this particular case, Senator Menendez believed the Isaias family had been politically persecuted in Ecuador, including through the confiscation of media outlets they owned which were critical of the government. We are not aware of any inquiry into the Senator’s actions on this matter.”

The Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics (CREW), a watchdog group in Washington, has put Sen. Menendez on the list of 13 most corrupt members of Congress. The watchdog put Menendez on the list last year because of accusations that he did favors for a friend and campaign donor, Salomon Melgen, and accepted rides on his private plane without disclosing them.

[ Editors Note: Sal Melgen is no slouch. He has had his offices searched twice over an $8 million Medicare ‘billing dispute’. And being a generous soul, he donated $700,000 to a super PAC affiliated with House Speaker Harry Reid, where Menendez got most of the money. Isn’t that special? Welcome to the best Congress that money can buy folks.]

Similarly, in November 2012, the Daily Caller reported that Menendez had contact with underage prostitutes in the Dominican Republic. The senator, however, has never faced prosecution over the allegations.

In late December, Menendez and Sen. Mark Kirk, who is also accused of corruption

A political analyst tells Press TV that the US assassination drone attacks amount to a “war crime” against civilians by a government that claims moral leadership of the world. As the number of casualties by US drone attacks in several countries increases, Washington claims the targets of the drone attacks are al-Qaeda militants, but local officials and witnesses maintain that civilians have been the main victims of the attacks over the past few years.

The Swedish and UK governments are filling out their roles as American policy lapdogs quite properly this weekend, helping to isolate one of the world’s top activists for 9/11 truth and prevent his appearance on a popular new London-based television program, Ken O’Keefe’s Middle East Show.

The program featuring Christopher Bollyn was tentatively titled: “Who is responsible for 9/11.”

With respect to the barring of Bollyn, O’Keefe wrote, “The UK Government is so scared of myself and Christopher Bollyn talking about 9/11 truths that they are sending him back to Sweden, he will not be on my show as planned tomorrow.”

Ken O’Keefe lives at the tip of the spear in terms of truth journalism. His work around the world has greatly aided a number of progressive political movements including the Iraq war human shield program, early efforts to protect whales from harvest in Washington state, and the quest for Hawaiian nationalism. A former U.S. Marine infantryman who served in the first Gulf War, Ken is perhaps best known for his activism on behalf of the children of Gaza.

He also, like so many of us, burns to explore and communicate the truth about the attacks against the United States on 11 September, 2001. Ken is a friend of Willie Rodriguez, the “last man out of the trade towers” on 9/11. Bollyn’s appearance would have greatly swayed a British populace which is already leaning toward truth, unlike their American counterparts who are much slower in looking more closely at the story.

Ken says the powers that be are cowardly little tyrants and minions who cannot handle truths about their little games.

“Pathetic wankers all, 2014 really deserves to be the year to end this bs. I will have Mark Glenn and Christopher Bollyn on Skype instead, make sure and tune in to this show, it is something else I can promise you.”

But Skype is not the same as having a live guest in your studio particularly for such an important topic, “I was told by Christopher that he was being held due to the legal issues he has in the US, the same legal issues that led to him fleeing the US several years ago. He also said that when he said he would be staying with me that they knew full well who I was and it was very clear this was not helpful to his cause,” O’Keefe said.

Ken O’Keefe after all has been declared to be so many things by the Israeli government. He was aboard the Turkish ship Mavi Marmara that was preparing to run the Gaza blockade in May 2010, but the crew never even started toward the Israeli/Palestinian coastline, in fact they were more than 80 miles off the coast in open ocean waters when they were attacked by the Israeli Defence Forces. Nine of Ken’s fellow crewmen, mostly journalists, were killed by the Israeli military. A United Nations investigation would reveal that most were “killed execution style.” During this melee in the open sea, Ken was directly involved in disarming and arresting two Israeli commandos. He is one of the only western people to ever arrest a member of the IDF and Israel will never let him forget that. In fact they branded him a “terrorist” and claimed he had known links to al-Qaeda, Hamas, and other terrorist groups. The truth is that Ken is an activist and journalist, and he says he wears those false labels like a badge of honor.

And perhaps it is directly connected simply to the fact that Ken O’Keefe is more honest and articulate than any of his foes, from BBC announcers to members of the U.S. and Israeli governments.

Ken further explains that Christopher Bollyn acted as a consultant on the 9/11 program he is producing and presenting for The Peoples Voice, the program airs January 12, 2014.

O’Keefe said, “Christopher was going to go into more detail with me about who is responsible for the 9/11 false flag attack. We both know that traitors in the US and dual national, Israel first Jews were responsible.”

This is where the story of “the dancing Israelis” ties into the story. It is a fact that Israel is the only nation to benefit from the attacks that the United States in turn used as an excuse to launch a series of murderous wars in the Middle East, all completely based on false flag information, from bin Laden’s role in 9/11 to the alleged “weapons of mass destruction” that Iraq, as it turns out, did not possess. One and a half million Iraqi people died in that war carried out for the purpose of attrition.

Three of the five “dancing Israelis” appeared on an Israeli television show to explain that they were sent to document the event.

Bollyn wrote of the so-called “Dancing Israelis”:

“The explosive story of the 5 suspicious Israelis seen celebrating while filming the attacks on the World Trade Center was first reported nationally in American Free Press shortly after September 11. ABC News recently reported on this story and added a comment that deserves attention.

“The Forward, a respected Jewish newspaper in New York, reported that at least two of the men were Israeli intelligence (Mossad) agents. The Israeli agents were first seen filming the attack on the WTC while kneeling on the roof of a white van in the parking lot of a New Jersey apartment building across the river from lower Manhattan.

“‘They seemed to be taking a movie,’ the resident who noticed them said. The men were taking video or photos of themselves with the World Trade Center burning in the background, she said. What struck her were the expressions on the men’s faces. ‘They were like happy, you know… They didn’t look shocked to me. I thought it was very strange,’ she said.”

Ken O’Keefe says Christopher has to spend the night in custody at London Heathrow Airport, he is being deported tomorrow morning around 7:00 a.m.

During the last days of the government shutdown, just before the default “that never was,” Americans were being told that they would be thrown into concentration camps by President Obama who was preparing to declare martial law.

They were told the stock markets were crashing and the world was coming to an end.

In fact, there were no concentration camps; the markets have been solid though the government spent $24 billion in fees to cover disrupted operations.

The truth about Obamacare
Almost nothing is manufactured in America. This is because healthcare costs under the “bankster monopoly” system of the neocons and Reaganites allowed costs to increase 1200% over 30 years.

At one point, one third of the cost of everything made in America went to insurance companies and unionized doctors. Pharmaceutical companies did their part too. A single aspirin tablet given to a patient in a hospital could cost $60.

Over the last decade, 40% of the families in the US who lost their homes or declared bankruptcy did so, not because of mortgage rates or lost jobs but because of medical bills that weren’t covered by insurance.

Healthcare robbery deindustrialized America and impoverished all but the wealthiest 20% of Americans.

In every instance, average wage-earning Americans will receive more care for less money than before. Those Americans earning below average will, for the first time for many families, actually have access to real health care.

Millions more Americans, denied any insurance because they are either already ill or have risks such as “genetic pre-disposition” to disease, who are denied access to care, those who need it most, will finally have some hope for a healthy and normal life.

The CNN/Trader Joe model
In a recent study done by CNN using the employees of Trader Joes, a popular “high end” food store, who are poorly paid, a comparison was made.

Typical part-time employees make $15,000 per year and pay an average of $169 per month for a medical discount program that is not actually insurance.

Under “Obamacare,” a “bronze” policy, equal to typical insurance for the military or unionized industrial workers, will be billed at $280 per month. However, under the program, Trader Joe employees will receive rebates which pay $220 per month of their premium.

Before Obamacare, they had “discounts” but not insurance for $169 per month. Now they have insurance for $60 per month.

Higher income families receive lower rebates but, typically, family costs are not just lower but half of current rates.

Several large health insurance companies pay back as little as 3% of the premiums they collect from policy holders. Those companies will now be sanctioned for their corrupt practices.

There is a long history in the US of state insurance commissions, the only existing oversight authority being controlled by former insurance company attorneys.

America’s healthcare myth
America is known to have the best healthcare in the world. Those who oppose the regulation of the insurance industry love stating this. What they don’t state, however, is that, though outstanding healthcare exists, few can afford it. That will now change.

GOP/Tea Party politicians continually state that anyone who can’t afford health care can simply show up at a hospital and demand care. This is true. You can show up, you can demand care.

However, hospitals aren’t obligated to cure diseases or even attempt to do so. Their legal obligation is to “stabilize” any immediate life-threatening conditions and release the patient.

A poor American will never get a transplant or expensive medicines. Poor Americans with cancer are four times more likely to die than those with health insurance that, prior to Obamacare, generally costs a family over $1400 per month average.

The average wage in Toledo, Ohio, where I live, is $10.50 per hour. Gross pay, before taxes, averages around $1700 per month. After taxes, net pay is around $1280 per month.

For a family with two adults working full time, comprehensive health care costs more than the entire net salary of one working family member.

The Walmart business model
Walmart is the largest employer in the United States. They pay $8.45 per hour and offer no benefits of any kind. Two million of their employees, because their total income for full-time employment is well below the “poverty level,” qualify for Medicaid, a federal program paid for by taxpayers.

This, Walmart, one of the richest and most profitable corporations in the world operates on a business model where their employees are subsidized by taxpayers.

Almost everything in Walmart, with the exception of food, is made in China.
Moreover, Walmart stores have put hundreds of thousands of small businesses across the US into bankruptcy by selling inferior products, using “slave labor” employees at below the cost of responsible small business owners.

Because of Walmart and hundreds of corporations like them, businesses that pay health insurance are bankrupted. Businesses that pay a decent wage are also bankrupted.

This business model has spread across America:
· Pay slave wages
· Sell inferior imported good only
· Subsidize employee wages with food stamps, Medicaid and welfare
· Bankrupt and destroy all competitors

Thus, using the Walmart model, those who shop at the world’s largest retail chain are rapidly eliminating all competition, sending millions of jobs overseas and guarantees generations of poverty to minimum wage workers while every member of the Walton family is a billionaire and more.

It gets better. Walmart believes they are paying too much at $8.45 per hour and spend millions each year supporting GOP/Tea Party politicians who want to roll back or totally eliminate the minimum wage.

Walmart’s other major expense is “Social security,” the government pension system put in place by President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

During the recent government shutdown, one of the demands made was to cut back Social Security, which, since America’s pension systems collapse under Bush era corruption, is the only retirement income for over 70% of Americans over 65 years old.

Of course, millions of Americans now work into their 80s and now die on the job, often surviving on canned pet food.

Phony economics
Obamacare forces all businesses to offer insurance coverage. This ends the predatory cycle that has pushed manufacturing overseas and given huge advantages to chain stores that own factories in China where small children assemble consumer goods for pennies a day.

Where many phony “pundits” claim small businesses will suffer, Obamacare not only levels the playing field for them, in truth, many small business owners, themselves, were forced to give up their own health insurance.

The abandoned homes across America are not those owned by unemployed “African Americans” or “Muslim immigrants.” Small business owners, borrowing to keep their companies alive, lost millions of homes, including one I can see from my front door every time I go outside.

Gangster capitalism
During the 1990s, Americans were told to invest their money in large homes. They were told homes would always go up in value.

One writer at Veterans Today paid $450,000 for his home in 1996. He then finished more area on his home and spent thousands on improvements and landscaping. In 2008, he was told his home was worth $145,000. He owed $250,000 and his home had counted for his entire “net worth” of $200,000 in equity.

In 2008, that equity, his life savings became over $105,000 in debt. This is a typical situation.

The same person had a pension through General Motors, where he had worked as an engineer for 30 years. The money was invested in General Motors’ stocks. However, under the “Bush collapse,” General Motors went bankrupt and that pension earned over 30 years turned to air.

One friend, a local doctor, had saved $4 million dollars in a retirement 401k. After the Bush collapse, his retirement of ease disappeared. His $4 million became $800,000, less money than he owed on his home, which was now also nearly worthless.

Recently, Americans spent nearly $3.5 billion dollars buying guns, mostly assault weapons and ammunition. They did so because the National Rifle Association, a group tied to the GOP and Tea Party told them that the government was outlawing guns.

A typical AR15 rifle in .223 caliber began selling for $3000 dollars. Millions were bought at that price. Last week, now that the “Obama gun scare” is debunked, a friend bought the same rifle for $545.

At one point, 9mm pistol rounds sold for $2 each. People bought more than a billion of them, many burying them in their yards in special containers, believing the government would be searching their homes. Today, the same bullet costs 28 cents.

The arms industry and National Rifle Association reached into the pockets of millions of frightened Americans and stole over $3 billion.

We could go on and on, mortgage fraud, war profiteering, government complicity in drug smuggling or the day-to-day theft that makes Washington DC the most corrupt city on earth.

Were one to read the flurry of “scare tactic” emails or listen to Internet pundits, the defeat of the opponents of Obamacare must seem inexplicable.
Why would the American people support programs that lead to concentration camps, “death panels” and destruction of the economy?

Of course, there is the possibility that these scares, like so many others, were simply made up. Who would do a thing like that?

Anti-Israeli sentiments have increased among Tunisians following recent revelations of the presence of Israeli spies in the North African country, Press TV reports.

“The lack of coordination among security forces has paved the way for the presence of spies in the country, including the Israeli Mossad. They are now active in Tunisia for many reasons. This includes the strategic positions and the impact of Tunisia’s internal developments in the region and beyond,” political analyst Jemai Guesmi said.

More than 150 demonstrations were held across the United States by immigration-reform advocates in order to put pressure on Congress and President Barack Obama to pass an immigration overhaul.

Thousands of people took to the streets in 40 states to hold what they called a “National Day of Immigrant Dignity and Respect” on Saturday afternoon.

Los Angeles, San Diego, Boston, Atlanta, New York, and Washington were among the cities that marches occurred.

The United States is home to nearly 12 million immigrants who lack legal status.

“I know there has been a shutdown, but we want Congress to know that the time is now to act,” said Evelyn Servin, an immigrant advocate. “We don’t want any more deportations. The respect we deserve is really needed here in Alabama.”

House Democrats introduced an immigration bill this week, saying their bill could pass if it went for a vote because nearly all their caucus would support it and some GOP members might, too.

House Speaker John Boehner, however, has said he will not bring a comprehensive immigration bill to the floor if a majority of GOP members oppose it.

A spokesman for Majority Leader Eric Cantor said simply “no” when asked if there was a chance the House Democrats’ bill would get a vote.

Reform supporters hope they can change Republicans’ minds.

Immigration-reform advocates say thousands of people will gather on the National Mall in Washington on Tuesday to make another call for reform, including through civil disobedience near the Capitol which could lead to arrests.

The dual press conference Thursday in Japan with John Kerry and Chuck Hagel was a minor earthquake event in the American Intel community.

Kerry called the thought of pursuing a military resolution on Iran’s nuclear case “diplomatic malpractice,” a term I had never heard used before but fell in love with immediately. Chuck Hagel then dropped the other shoe, “engagement is not appeasement, it is not surrender.” They cut Netanyahu off at the knees.

This was of course carefully choreographed against Bibi for his attempt to threaten ‘going rogue’ with an Iran attack on its own. He blatantly delivered this not only at the UN last week but in his meeting with Obama on Monday. It seemed that common sense had finally returned to the White House, but we wondered why the dramatic shift…why delivered so forcefully with a double punch, and in Asia. We sniffed something in the air known as…retribution.

Gordon Duff’s Press TV article America’s “Netanyahu Shut Down,” published on Wednesday, described how Obama began moving, away from the red lines, while Israel was deploying its American intelligence assets in media and AIPAC to car jack Obama’s policy toward a diplomatic solution.

The Zionists tried to flank Obama publicly that he was still pursuing diplomacy with the military threat, which opened the way for Israel to do the same, minus any diplomatic effort.

We had earlier been concerned about the apparent ‘disconnection’ that Kerry was presenting in his public appearances during the Syrian gassing attack crisis. None of it made any sense by even the most rudimentary intelligence analysis. Something had to be going on behind the scenes. Was it stupidity? Was AIPAC driving the policy? Was bogus Intel being fed in?

Were the military and civilian Intel heads asleep at the wheel? It seemed to us almost an impossibility that large a group of top people could be buying the “Assad did it” version of the attack and all on-board the attack on Syrian train despite all the huge and obvious risks involved, especially General Dempsey. Why? Sometimes these things are done as a feint, for something to follow, so we were watching events unroll very carefully.

When no proof was forthcoming that triggered more concern, of maybe even a debate going on inside the White House that what they had might not fly with the public, the world, or even the independent Intel community. So we began digging around for what they were afraid of. At the top of the list was our suspicion that the ‘proof’ was based on Israeli sources.

Why? We knew the Israelis were desperate to see Assad finished off via their favorite method, using the American military and taxpayers’ money. We knew that if they saw their desired end result with Syria begin to slip away that they would obviously do everything in their power to trigger the chemical weapon ‘red line’ trigger. This was foolishly and needlessly put out much earlier, and helped create what happened with the gassing. Whoever had pitched that red line strategy to Obama, they should find a new line of work.

What had us perplexed is we knew the military would not trust going on Israeli sourced Intel only. They are aware of Israel’s long history of false flags and manufacturing bogus Intel and threats. That we tolerate such a close relationship with a country that has such an extensive criminal history is part of the embarrassment of serving in the US military and civilian security community. And yes, it does not take long for the new people coming in to see that political corruption is the driving engine for our disastrous Israeli and Mid East foreign policy.

We knew the top brass was aware that the Israeli IDF 8200 unit was a long known psyops unit, as in “fraudulent communications intercepts-R-US.” When Kerry’s people finally trotted out their ‘proof,’ this is what they used. But they also added a confirmation with our satellite Intel…that the trajectories they observed came from Syrian controlled areas. And here is where it gets a little tricky for folks unfamiliar with how these Intel games are played.

How did the US know the areas the rockets came from were Syrian controlled? Street fighting is very fluid combat. You can hold a street corner, but only three blocks down one way, and one block down the other. And even if you are expanding your perimeter, that can change constantly with counter attacks. You can have enemy units cut off behind your own lines.

Then there was a huge problem with how the sarin was deployed, using rockets. Why?…because you can have a half kilometer variance on where they are going to land when they are fired off from tube launchers. This is why they would generally not be use in street fighting, but to bombard a town that you were on the outskirts of.

A professional army would typically only deploy such weapons in close street fighting using mortar munitions, and only then after registration fire and observating that they had the range correctly. And personally I would not want to be along the flight part due to the danger of ‘shorts.’ Artillery is also an option, but you can kill the same number of people with just conventional munitions, and not trigger a red line.

So as we suspected the ‘additional’ satellite confirmation was not ‘additional’ at all because the determination that the rockets came from the Syrian lines was again the Israeli intercept bogus Intel, what is jokingly called a ‘circular confirmation,’ as in ‘You lie, and I’ll swear to it!”

That left us in a quandary as to how Intel so skimpy could be used to trigger the deployment of nuclear bomber wings, major shifts of nuclear ordinance, and a major Navy and Air Force strike units. We sensed there had to have been something else, a kind of Intel that would be difficult to mention. HUMIT, or human intelligence was the prime category as you typically never want to even mention using it.

We have confirmed from the highest sources that that is what took place. There was a HUMIT source that was added to the confirmation mix. But there is more. We have also confirmed that this source was bogus, but had worked its way up the line to being included in top level briefings through the assistance of a highly placed Israeli mole. This was someone in the chain of command, someone high enough to assure that lower level people would not block it coming up the line.
The mole was part of or a Pentagon espionage network that filtered and altered incoming intelligence reports. In the Bush (43) this was done openly. The Obama White House has been being fed ‘unvetted’ intelligence…something that would take years of penetration work to get into a position to do. A similar operation was done to feed bogus material on Iran’s nuclear program.

The Israelis risked a deep cover agent to do exactly what they are placed where they are to do…to be activated for something considered absolutely critical to accomplish at a particular time. If not already identified, the mole is being hunted as I type. The lists of possibilities is short, and would go up to those actually briefing the presidential state and state department.

Washington is absolutely filled with dual citizen Israelis and Israeli firster non-Jewish Americans. It’s a horrible security situation. There are so many they don’t even stand out any more.

It is difficult and even dangerous for our counter intelligence people to do their jobs effectively because these deep cover agents, the ones that require Congressional confirmation, have powerful political patrons. That is how the Israelis protect all of their top people.

That said, the politicians do not always know they are ‘agents.’ These deep cover people will always have stellar resumes, all part of the grooming needed to get them into top slots. The State Department is covered up with them, and it is so open that they are thick as thieves with the AIPAC people, which makes them in a way, not very deep cover.

We will be following this situation closely since we see Israel has burned a major bridge here, one that would be totally consistent with the major shift we are seeing. Netanyahu and his Likudites are in a panic to keep the Mid East on a war footing and the US on their string. But they have suffered a full and open defeat here, plus AIPAC ran into a brick wall despite their usual efforts.

Will this signal to prosecutors that it is now safe to start bringing criminal cases against more Israeli agents here? We hope so, of course. And our offer to assist the FBI in doing so is simple. Just ask anyone in the community who has been around a long time, and the retired people.

And don’t forget to go through your own files for the investigations that were closed due to political obstruction of justice. That will keep you busy, and you will have a long list in no time. And yes, we can send a VT crew in to help, with the understanding that we don’t acknowledge ‘protected entities.’

Call it a plague of coincidences. The day the US government is shut down, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu comes to the United States.

Is he there to celebrate the warm relationship between two nations? The US has just backed away from every Israeli “red line,” Syria, Iran and has even begun pushing for a Palestinian settlement again.
Something only the Israeli papers noticed: When Netanyahu’s rambling, hate filled diatribe at the United Nations was due to be broadcast on American television networks, it was preempted by President Obama making an “emergency announcement” that was almost, word for word, identical to his talk only hours before.
The real messages, the real “slaps in the face,” are subtle.
Was Obama actually defending Netanyahu from his own hubris? The following unedited excerpt from the White House press conference is a clear indication of the very real extreme distance between US and Israeli policy.
No publication or media outlet cited this startling shift in US policy and the revelations that led to it.Obama diplomatically calls Netanyahu a “Liar”
Here is another one, in the transcript of the Obama/Netanyahu press conference, sourced directly from the White House website:

“We had an opportunity to discuss the situation in Syria. Obviously, we have a broad set of strategic concerns in Syria. We are both pleased that there is the possibility of finally getting chemical weapons stockpiles out of Syria. But I think we both share a deep concern that we have to be able to verify and enforce what has now been agreed to at the United Nations. Chemical weapons inside of Syria obviously have threatened Syrian civilians, but over the long term also pose a threat to Israel. And we want to make sure that we get those indiscriminate, horrible weapons out of there. “

Netanyahu was aghast, the weapons that were Assad’s had now become “indiscriminate” with no mention of who used them, who made them or how they got to Syria.Israel’s Syria plot foiled
Only two weeks before, Secretary of State Kerry stated that US intelligence had proof; communications intercepts and other “unspecified intelligence” which he said “proved” the Assad government had been responsible for Sarin attacks near Damascus.
Two weeks later, President Obama, with Netanyahu sitting next to him, has backed away from those assertions. Why?
President Obama had not been informed that the only source for the false information Kerry embarrassingly spouted was the Mossad, an organization whose only purpose is openly stated to be “War through Deception.” From an article by Ed Morrissey:

“It is “crystal clear” that Syrian President Bashar Assad used chemical weapons five days ago in an attack that killed hundreds of people, International Relations Minister Yuval Steintz said Monday.

Steinitz, speaking at a press conference sponsored by the Jerusalem Press Club, said that this was the first time chemical weapons were used on a mass scale against civilians…
Why is Steintz so convinced it was Assad and not the al-Qaeda affiliates who deployed the chemical weapons? According to the German news magazine Focus, the IDF intercepted high-level communications in the Syrian government at the time, and has the record of orders to use the weapons:
‘According to the findings of Israeli intelligence community, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is responsible for the gas attack in Damascus,’ reports the publication.
According to FOCUS, the IDF’s Unit 8200, the IDF’s signals intelligence unit, had intercepted communications of the Syrian army during the attack.
‘A former Mossad officer told FOCUS the analysis has clearly shown that the bombardment with poison gas missiles was made by Syrian government forces,’ reports the publication.”
John Schindler, a professor at the US Naval War College confirmed, through Twitter, that Israel was the only source for Kerry’s “intelligence,” their “United 8200,” listed as SIGINT but actually a “psychological warfare and deception” unit.Netanyahu, Obamacare and the banksters
As the Republican Party had once been the party of big business and the rich, it has now become little more than a mechanism for expressing Israeli rule of America. Key to that rule is unregulated financial sectors free to “pump and dump” stock markets, free to bleed American families and businesses with a corrupt insurance and health care industry and free to inflict endless war, oil and drugs, corruption and thuggery.
False flag terrorism, a Mossad specialty, keeps the wheels greased. Bribery and blackmail is very much a part.
Netanyahu’s visit on the eve of the shutdown of America’s government had a second purpose, to give instructions to his “toadies” in the Tea Party and GOP.

Americans had been told, though the corporate media, that the Republican Party was in an internal war against the Tea Party, characterized as extremist fanatics whose agenda runs counter to real “conservative values” and the America’s wellbeing.

However, the shutdown wasn’t just “Tea Party” nor is it just in the House of Representatives but rather involves all Republicans, including those groups we are told are at war with one another.
With so many issues dividing the opposition party, only one force could unite them against American interests. That issue is simple, orders from above.
By “above,” we mean orders from the international criminal conspiracy represented by Netanyahu, perhaps the most buffoonish politician of our era.Bibi’s revenge
Today, American veterans are unable to receive even emergency healthcare. Netanyahu and his henchmen are still blocking even this, though three separate provisions have been introduced to extend medical care to America’s military families and veterans.
Thus far, the GOP (Grand Old Party, the “Republicans) have continued to sabotage these efforts, an act that is pure political suicide for them. America’s sick and disabled war heroes are being used to blackmail the Obama presidency.
This is the hand of Netanyahu, as certain as day is day.Betrayal of Israel
The real betrayal of Israel is Netanyahu’s continued mindless belligerence. Time and time again, Netanyahu has stated that Israel’s real military power is based on its ability to manipulate America to fight unjust wars of aggression. However, those wars never do anything for Israel or its people, they only aid organized crime, drug runners, human traffickers and financial criminals.
The rulers of Israel are very much a part of this very international power elite. The Israeli people, not so much. At least they don’t have to fight wars, not since being humiliated by Hezbollah in Lebanon in 2006.
Israel is unlikely to every fight again. Surrogates are doing that for them, first the United States and now al-Qaeda.
Or was al-Qaeda always “them?”

US Senator Dianne Feinstein, chairman of the Select Committee on Intelligence, has done everything possible to allow the National Security Agency (NSA) to continue spying on every American, a US journalist says.

On Thursday, Congress took the first step to restrain the NSA’s phone-snooping program, with Feinstein laying out details of a bill that would require phone data be deleted more quickly and let agents to notify a secret court every time they want to comb through the data.
However, the bill would allow the NSA to continue collecting bulk phone records on millions of Americans, Feinstein said on Thursday.
“They’re not just spying on the public; they’re spying on every American company, they’re spying on every American defense company, they’re spying on every American stock and stock trading company, hedge fund, every American bank,” said Gordon Duff, a senior editor of Veterans Today, an online political journal.
“And it’s just not telephone calls, it’s all electronic transmissions,” Duff said. “All of that raw information, other than the small percentage that involves direct government to government communication, all of it goes to Israel.”
President Barack Obama and other senior American officials have defended the government’s spying programs as a necessary tool to combat terrorism.
Duff said that all terrorist attacks in the US in recent history have been “false flag” operations. “Frankly, nobody cares about terrorism in the United States, it has all been a hoax from the first.”
Following revelations by former NSA contractor, Edward Snowden, which showed how the agency is collecting phone records and emails of both US nationals and foreigners, the spying agency came under harsh scrutiny and criticism.

Obama continues to take his presidential credibility down in flames. After joining Western and Persian Gulf state allies to overthrow the Syrian government under the guise of an Arab Spring revolution, that hoax was clearly exposed for all when al-Qaeda emerged as Obama’s new War of Terror partner, courtesy of the al-Nusra head chopper brigades.”

“More than any other time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness. The other, to total extinction. Let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly.” – Woody Allen

Container trucks carrying NATO supplies are seen parked at the Pakistani town of Chaman, before being moved to Afghanistan, July 27, 2012.

It was only a week ago that the US government released Eric Harroun, a former soldier who had been fighting with foreign backed al-Qaeda terrorists and the CIA against the Assad government in Syria.

This week, former Army sergeant Joseph Hunter and a group of other veterans, one from Germany’s armed forces, were arrested for much the same thing, offering “security services” for Colombian drug cartels.
Were worldwide press censorship to ease, the public would learn that America’s drone program is used more for maintaining control of drug production and distribution than terrorism. In fact, according to Russian officials, heroin from Afghanistan, all produced and exported under unspoken but very public approval of US officials, killed over one million people last year.
Drug production, when examined using economic modeling, makes oil racketeering and arms trafficking seem primitive in comparison. No technology is used, fertilizer financed through IMF programs, poppy fields irrigated through USAID programs, heroin processed in German-built labs, shipped on American truck convoys or CIA-leased aircraft, distributed around the world at 10,000% profit.
The CIA has been doing this since the early 1980s and, as every sane person in the world knows, built the drug empire in Afghanistan, the largest in the world.
By “security,” we mean killings, in this case, the group had actually been hired by Americans posing as Colombian drug dealer.
Their job was to murder anyone, including drug enforcement officers, public officials and their family members, even the president of the United States, if asked.
There is a problem with all of this, perhaps more than one problem.
Isn’t this exactly what thousands of Americans, members of the military, the intelligence services, thugs working for USAID and NGOs, have been doing all along.Political power of the drug
America’s government faces a shutdown, this time because powerful banks and insurance companies feel their profits and political power threatened by health care laws that regulate their long despicable practices.
The members of congress paid by the insurance and health care racketeers were, in dozens of cases, put into office by drug money laundered through offshore accounts controlled by former presidential candidate Mitt Romney.
This marriage of power, the narcotics lobby, the pro-war lobby, particularly McCain, Graham and Lieberman, is also the heart of the Israel lobby.
Before the last election, in meetings with the former head of the FBI’s drug task force, I was given documents outlining ties between top Republican Party officials and the Mexican drug cartels, which are currently terrorizing over a dozen American states.
Gangs of killers employed by these cartels, fully supported by the Republican Party, control most of America’s southwest region and are closely partnered with the LDS (Latter Day Saints) religious sect.
They have set up their own “kingdom,” called “Deseret” inside the United States where they have married religious rule with organized crime.
The Kingdom of Deseret still exists, a region covering nearly 18% of the United States, extending from the Mexican border to the snowy peaks of Idaho.
Citizens of Deseret control much of the FBI and CIA, gambling operations in Las Vegas and have enjoyed over a century of partnership with lawless elements in Mexico.
Extremists among the Deseret hierarchy boast of controlling America’s naval vessels operating in the Mediterranean and Persian Gulf and of their ability to access nuclear weapons.
This is the group that controls the NSA. The NSA’s $4 billion “fusion center” is being constructed in Utah, an LDS-controlled region, “ground zero” for the Kingdom of Deseret.Background
As early as the 1840s, the LDS terrorized wagon trains heading across the west, kidnapping women, murdering all others.
Within their own community, they maintained control through “Avenging Angels,” assassins that enforced religious doctrine and hierarchical control, though murder. This system still exists. It was the model for America’s current privatization model, with mercenary groups answerable to extremist organizations and racketeers, all paid for by American taxpayers, running drugs, delivering poison gas to al-Qaeda and orchestrating terror attacks.
In the late 1800s, the LDS or “Mormons” as they are called, fled to Mexico after an unsuccessful war against the United States. There, they formed alliances with bandits and revolutionaries along the border, groups that have now “morphed” into the drug cartels of today.
Those relationships are alive and well today and extend through the heart of America’s financial centers and controlling America’s lower legislative body, the House of Representatives.
Key members of that organization enjoy huge financial benefits from offshore accounts that were made public during the last election, made public and then forgotten.
This power is used in combination with the Israeli AIPAC lobby to support NSA spying and widespread manipulation of financial markets, particularly using the mass of proprietary data gleaned through spying and given to Israel through the recently publicized Memorandum of Understanding.
Call this a “front row ticket” to controlling all financial transactions, technology and intellectual property of the United States, controlling and peddling around the world through open and legalized “piracy.”Afghanistan
The war in Afghanistan has made the power of the narcotics lobby over America’s military, intelligence and governmental organizations more than obvious.
The narcotics cartels obviously control America’s media.
During the 12 years of American rule, Afghanistan has gone from a nearly drug free nation under the Taliban to a country of addicts and the producer of over 95% of the world’s refined heroin.
Even the United Nations has been warned off, no longer even reporting heroin production in Afghanistan. America talks about its anti-drug efforts though former US envoy, Richard Hollbrooke, openly admitted that narcotics production was key to America’s policy in Afghanistan.
No one has spoken of it since.Invisible drug empire
Two weeks ago, the US government sentenced an African American soldier, a West Point graduate, to prison for involvement in the heroin trade in Afghanistan. From Navy Times: “A West Point graduate and former Army captain busted for trafficking heroin from Afghanistan to the U.S. was sentenced Sept. 4 to 10 years in a federal prison. Saleem Akbar Sharif, 36, of Johns Island, S.C., also agreed to surrender $100,000 in drug profits. He pleaded guilty last year to conspiracy and possession with intent to distribute heroin.”
There is a problem here.
The US government has never admitted that heroin is produced in Afghanistan. They claim only opium paste is produced.
For a West Point graduate to be arrested for making only $100,000 selling narcotics, the crime should have been laziness and inefficiency.
No document has ever admitted any heroin production in Afghanistan, there are no records, and, in particular, not one photograph of any heroin production facility.
The US has never found one, in its “war on drugs.” Similarly, the US never found WMD’s in Iraq or the dozen or more massive underground bunker complexes Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld cited when advocating an American invasion of Afghanistan. In a televised interview with Tim Russert, Rumsfeld spoke of facilities that housed thousands, underground monorails, storage of armored vehicles, entire cities underground. He supplied a graphic, not entirely unlike the cartoon Netanyahu held in his hands while humiliating himself before the UN general assembly in his diatribe about Iran’s nuclear energy program.
But heroin production does exist.
Yet, chemicals used to produce heroin are shipped into Afghanistan at US government expense labeled “dry cleaning supplies.”
The same containers leave through the Pakistani port of Karachi, laden with processed heroin, or so top security officials in Pakistan have told me.
These containers, unnumbered and unregistered, move under the full authority of the United States government.
If you check the Internet, looking for news of anti-drug operations or photographs posted on social network sites, you will never see opium transported, never see heroin processing facilities, never see a container loaded or a plane packed with heroin flown out to NATO headquarters in Brussels to be unloaded.
In a dozen years, there has been no evidence published, none sought and much suppressed.
This is the power of the private and not so private armies that protect and defend the world’s narcotics traffickers, a group which includes political leaders, the US, Canada, Britain, France, Israel, Switzerland, Turkey, certainly Afghanistan but more, so many more.

Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson voices a common opinion for the military and intelligence communities, who generally despise both of them as political and personal low lifes

[ Editors Note: McCain has long been regard as a security risk, and Graham, although for different reasons. People who have gotten close to McCain’s hidden story of his Hanoi Hotel days have ended up dead. As for Graham, his being the Air Force reserve colonel who can collect a pension, but never showed up for work, does not go down well.

Also, Obama’s initial cold shoulder response to meeting Iran’s Rouhani at the UN this week, who has been bending over backwards with conciliatory gestures on the nuke issue, triggered blistering responses to the White House on how stupid that was… Jim W. Dean ]

Larry has had a lot of access to how the Israel game is really played

A former US official has said that Republican Senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham are Israeli allies who are “bordering on being traitors.” Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, former chief of staff to Colin Powell when he was the US Secretary of State, has severely criticized McCain and Graham for being Israeli allies who take aggressive postures toward diplomatic negotiations with Iran over its nuclear energy program and who are “angry that” the US did not attack Syria.

Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani has left Tehran for New York City to attend the 68th session of the United Nations General Assembly amid media speculations about the possibility of a meeting between the Iranian President and his US counterpart Barack Obama in New York.White House deputy national adviser Ben Rhodes told reporters on Monday that a meeting between Rouhani and Obama is possible.

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney also said on Thursday that a meeting between the two “is possible.”In an interview with NBC News in Tehran on Wednesday, President Rouhani also did not rule out the possibility of a meeting with President Obama.

Meanwhile, Carney said Wednesday that Obama has told Rouhani in an exchange of letters that the US is ready to resolve the standoff over Iran’s nuclear energy program “diplomatically.”However, in a recent interview with The Real News Network, Wilkerson said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his allies on Capitol Hill, including McCain and Graham, are opposed to any diplomatic negotiations with Iran.

“And then you come to this country and you find Netanyahu’s allies in people like Senator John McCain, Senator Lindsey Graham — from my home state — and others, who are bordering on being traitors in my view, because they won’t let this president [Obama] have room to achieve a diplomatic solution,” Wilkerson told The Real News Network.

“They’re all angry now that he [Obama] didn’t bomb Syria that he in fact, in conjunction with [Russian President Vladimir] Putin, came up with a deal that may be extremely challenging to implement but nonetheless it’s kept the bombs from dropping, which is a good thing, and so they’re moving on to Iran, with Graham even saying he’s going to move for legislation to authorize the use of military force against Iran in the next four to five months,” he added.

The US, Israel and some of their allies claim that Iran is pursuing non-civilian objectives in its nuclear energy program, with the US and the European Union using the unfounded allegation as a pretext to impose illegal sanctions on Iran.

Of all the world’s obnoxious Zionists, Charlie Wolf is one of my favorites.

Unlike most of them, he has the guts to go on Press TV and debate people like me.

So he may be a war criminal and a scumbag. He may be pimping for the murder of millions.

He reacted to the bulldozer murder of Rachel Corrie by calling her “scum.” When that remark caused widespread outrage, Wolf’s so-called apology was to say that he was sorry for her death, “even if by her own stupidity.”

Now he’s fanning the flames of World War III in Syria.

But whatever you want to call Charlie Wolf – creep, genocide propagandist, moral imbecile – you can’t call him a complete coward. He’ll go on Press TV and duke it out with me or George Galloway or whoever they throw at him.

Good for Charlie.

But like all Zionists, he’s terrified of 9/11 truth. Bring up 9/11, and watch the Zionists squirm.

It is time we differentiated hard intelligence and rational analysis from conspiracy theory addiction. Remember, it was Fox News and the Limbaugh crowd that created the addiction for wild conspiracies and fabrication.

They, of course, did so out of knowing treason, as time has proven out rather conclusively. Let’s look at what we know, what we can prove and, especially, what can never be published.

A reader coined our media here in the West, the “LSN” (Lame Stream News). That one may stick. The shame is even Colbert, Maher and Stewart are shamefully dim witted and gutless.

They make me sick.

Bugging the Press, or at Least The “Associated Press”

The AP or “Associated Press” is hardly real press. Why shouldn’t the government bug the press? We pay the government to protect us from dangerous criminals. In recent years, those who aren’t wearing uniforms or badges, carry press passes often as not.

First of all, at VT, we have certainly been bugged all along by a dozen governments. We get followed and a few claim that helicopters are over their homes continually. I am not so sure about that but we have endless evidence of continual infiltration attempts by paid informants and petty “terrorist groupies,” all pretending to be activists of members of the “alternative press.”

We have had several of our editors and correspondents imprisoned, including a UN Ambassador and member of congress and one who served as White House intelligence chief.

Their crimes? One tried to tell Bush his Iraqi WMDs didn’t exist. The other refused to assign a huge amount of money belonging to the people of the United States to the Bush family. That got him a 22 year sentence. These moves “on the press” were done by two “Bush league” presidents.

Another VT correspondent in Britain is under indictment for, and you will love this, reporting a terrorist threat to an intelligence agency that may well have been fully complicit in planning what was to be an act of false flag terrorism. “Let no good deed go unpunished.”

The lesson; if you are going to report terrorists, please ask them if they are working for the Mossad, CIA or MI-6 beforehand.

If they say no, they are with the Department of Homeland Security, America’s answer to Al Qaeda.

Bush and Cheney ordered the assassination of another of our editors, Gwyneth Todd, a member of the National Security Council. “Gw” escaped to Turkey and then to Australia. The attempt on her life was featured in a five-page Washington Post article and is mentioned, with some regularity, on television in Australia.

Todd, while at the White House, was privy to some of America’s darkest secrets, not just the illegal invasions but broad spying by AIPAC and even planning of the 9/11 attack as well.

Three VT contributors have been killed while reporting in zones of conflict.

One was kidnapped and tortured by Israelis, an issue now before the International Criminal Court at The Hague.

Another, an Israeli citizen of Jewish ethnicity, is under “sentence of death for honesty in journalism,” a common form of recognition in Israel.

As for the AP and “others,” we are fully behind government efforts to investigate them. We have found the “Lame Stream News” isn’t quite so innocent.

Minimally, anyone who hasn’t been living under a rock knows the news delivered to the undiscerning American, Brit, German, Canadian or what have you is pure propaganda.

What few realize is that the acts of domestic terrorism know openly accepted as “false flag attacks,” certainly Sandy Hook and Boston, and 9/11 most of all, would be impossible without full complicity by the press.

If the government wants to stop domestic terrorism, they are going to have to wiretap the LSN, catching the text messages, emails and phone calls from the spy organizations and terrorist groups that we believe are regularly in contact with the press.

Key press assets are notified in advance of attacks so that stories can quickly be “spun” to blame the “favor of the month” patsy and to cover up blunders. On 9/11, when Building 7 collapsed though undamaged, the BBC had predicted that collapse 20 minutes in advance by mistakenly getting the timing of the demolition schedule wrong. They had been notified in advance.

To any idiot, this has to be obvious: The BBC was working directly with the terrorists.

No other explanation is possible. If you can think of one, let me know.

It is impossible to defend the United States from terrorism and espionage without running surveillance on terrorist groups and foreign spies.America’s press qualifies on both counts.

There is more than conclusive evidence that the press takes direction from AIPAC/ADL, long under investigation/indictment for espionage.

Eighty-five percent of America’s press is controlled by corporations involved in war profiteering. Ninety-five percent of the individuals who manage our news are either Israeli citizens or qualify for Israeli citizenship.

This is not to say that all are controlled but as the truth never gets out and wrongdoers are openly assisted and covered for by the press, perhaps it’s time we took a look at them.

Tea Party Stirs Troubles

Let’s face it; the Tea Party is funded by money laundered into the country through “Citizens united.” The funding that put Tea Party candidates in office was money from international criminal cartels, drugs, prostitution, human trafficking, human organ theft and their cut of the massive financial crimes that their policies defend while they sit in Congress.

As for domestic contributions, most come from Sheldon Adelson, the gambling boss, likeable old character though he is, and the ultra-evil Koch brothers, some of the biggest market scamsters in the world.

It doesn’t take a genius to note that the Tea Party serves an agenda that demonstrates ties to organized crime, terrorist organizations and that it is broadly aligned with financial wrongdoing.
This is exactly the kind of group I want the IRS investigating. They are only being rational: “Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.”

There was a lot of distraction in the news last week, particularly the flank attack moves on Obama that obscured a huge development in the Mid East… the first return of the Russian Pacific Navy for Mediterranean deployment since 1992.

The first big part of the news is the active word ‘permanent.’ Corporate media decided to ignore the strategic shift consequences of that, and the West may be looking back soon at the wisdom their aggressive regime change military moves, despite the extensive use of proxies.
The recent Israeli attacks on Syria, particularly the use of a nuclear bunker buster gave the Russians a gift from heaven, opening the door to make a defensive deployment to protect their longtime ally in Syria. The Russians are back in the Med to stay, and this might be a good lesson to the folly of the Western slow motion aggression policy in the region, which has put a match to the whole place.
Russian Navy Commander Admiral Viktor Chirkov has announced that a permanent staff was being set up, and the present force might eventually include their nuclear submarines. In speaking to RIA:

“Overall, already from this year, we plan to have five or six warships and support vessels [in the Mediterranean Sea], which will be replaced on a rotating basis from each of the fleets – the Black Sea, Baltic, Northern and, in some cases, even the Pacific Fleet. Depending on the scope of assignments and their complexity, the number of warships in the task force may be increased.”

Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu let the cat out of the bag when he stated that a permanent naval task force was needed to defend Russian interests in the region. The world has watched for two years now how coolly Russia has dealt with the continuing escalations in the fighting there, supported by a growing number of outside states who have effectively declared war on Syria thinking that such was a no-risk deal.
Here is what corporate media has not been telling you all. The preemptive strike doctrine of the Israelis and Neocons is going to be challenged. Netanyahu can talk all he wants to about red lines which will trigger a preemptive ‘defensive’ strike, but yours truly has written in these columns that eventually the intended targets would adopt that policy themselves. They have actually been given permission to by the dummies who invented it.
US Navy sources can sneer at the ‘old’ Russian ships all they want to, but there is nothing old about what they will be carrying, a game changer… their state-of-the-art missiles which they made a top priority in their defense policy as the new missiles are revolutionizing the next generation of warfare. The will sweep the skies of planes and the seas of ships. Air forces are working now to deploy robotic war plane drones that are basically missiles themselves by matching their speeds and aerodynamics.
Part of the corporate media hoax has been the fraudulent story of the S-300s being ‘introduced’ to the region as being destabilizing. Anyone wanting to check a copy of Jane’s in 1996 will find them already in Syria. Maybe some definition game has been going on that if they were under Russian physical control, as American munitions are in many foreign bases, they are not officially Syrian. But I would ask the lazy media what they thought brought down the Turkish F-16 provocations, a waste of those unfortunate pilots in peace time.
Yes folks, the S-300’s have been there all this time, and not fired at Israel yet. But that is all going to change. Israel’s days of roaming freely over Lebanon airspace and their ability to launch air flight munitions without entering Syrian territory may be over, or it will be when the Russians decide to.

Their fleet, even its older ships will be carrying their state-of-the-art weapons like the S-400’s where a pilot only has two or three seconds to live once the ‘beep beep’ that they are locked onto at tremendous speeds. The Russian ships on patrol will be able to shoot any attacking Israeli planes down, including those returning to base post attack. They can even be shot down while taking off.

In 2000, a criminal conspiracy overthrew the government of the United States through violence, threats of violence and massive fraud.

In light of what many believe to be the upcoming collapse, world war, economic meltdown, climate sabotage, global pandemics and radiation threats, key evidence has been brought forward.

The oft spoken of New World Order is now much more than conspiracy or myth. The United States is now and has been little more than a colony, to be bled dry.

It is now clearly recognized that this organization stands ready to destroy the last vestiges of human civilization in service of some indiscernible goal. Ascribing the term “reptilian” to these machinations is an insult to a viper.

Some Have Had “Enough”

In recognition of the current state of emergency, leaders of America’s military and intelligence community loyal to constitutional authority have taken exception with the continuity of governmental and command authority.

This is not a specific challenge to the Obama presidency but rather a clear recognition of the seizure of political authority in the US (and most other western nations) has ended all representative government.

By this standard, all governmental actions of the United States since that time will be “null and void.” However, the dead will still be dead, the maimed and despondent, countless in number, may look for what solace they can.

The old dialectic, “republic or democracy” is passé, much of the world exists under the slavery of a New World Order or is awaiting doom. Not all will pass into the darkness as sheep, as happened in America and her “allies.”

“The People against the New World Order”

Legally, George W. Bush was never the President of the United States, according to legal opinions now under broad acceptance with America’s top commanders.

Authorities now cite the election of former Vice President Al Gore. The same authorities demand both the restoration of the Gore presidency and the impeachment of Gore for failure to assume office though legally elected.

Records of Supreme Court deliberations during their bizarre move against the constitution in 2000 show that they were aware, not just of broad electronic vote rigging but that five court members were fully involved in a plot against the United States, knowingly complicit in a coup that involved broad threats of violence, blackmail and bribery on a massive scale.

New information on the 2000 election, information now in the hands of top military officials in the US, conclusively proves that America’s government is in “free fall.”

The evidence, leaked by top Pentagon commanders, tells a story now very easy to believe, a story of hate, of greed and, especially of brutal totalitarian intent.

Background

A group closely aligned with a “not so hidden” world government made up of financial criminals, oil and defense corporations, groups like the Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commission and Bilderbergers and extremist groups that penetrated all western military and intelligence commands exercised a violent overthrow of the government of the United States.

The operational planning group was the Project for a New American Century (PNAC), tasked with rigging the 2000 election, organizing the corporate media behind the coup.

As some may remember, the Supreme Court appointed George W. Bush as president, on a 5/4 vote on pure party lines. Retired Justice Sandra Day O’Connor, in recent public revelations has “strongly hinted” at the court’s legal misconduct in 2000.

Less publicly, secret deliberations, now in the hands of key leaders, penetrate the secrecy behind this critical time. The Supreme Court, led by a five-member cabal at the heart of the coup, knowingly abrogated state’s rights, separation of powers and equal protection provisions of the constitution to empower a criminal conspiracy intent on unleashing an American dictatorship on the world as a “super-cop.”

As early as 1999, PNAC had announced the need for “a new Pearl Harbor” to condition the American people to accept a consolidation of totalitarian authority and a permanent state of warfare.

The subsequent planning and execution of 9/11 was only one aspect of the broader plan; seizing the government, 9/11, suspending civil rights, rigging congressional districts, instill “true believers” in military and government and setting up a multi-national world government to manage a quasi-global slave state.

Experts in nearly every field all agree on one thing, collapse is imminent.

Correcting Course

Restoration of constitutional authority, the basis of all “oaths of allegiance” for those serving with the authority of “the republic” requires the restoration of said republic and its last elected president. Thus, Albert Gore is the last legally elected president and must, by law, fulfill his term of office.

Two branches of government are, technically, in rebellion against the United States.

The Supreme Court of the United States has strayed, an understatement of Olympic proportions.

Evidence of a conspiracy against the court to overthrow the government exists. Dissenting members of the court were subject to threats of violence against their persons and families as was President Gore.

This has been confirmed.

Subsequent acts of the court, the utter and absolute failure to uphold constitutional guarantees time and time again has been a travesty.

It has been treasonous, from Citizen’s United to the congressional redistricting which denied “equal protection and representation” to over 100 million Americans.

When the Supreme Court allowed suspension of habeas corpus, all semblance of representative government ended.

When they allowed murder, kidnapping and torture, ending all “due process,” they became war criminals.

The “Horrible House”

The US House of Representatives is now a tyranny controlled entirely by minority party under the control of criminal elements. Nearly half the members of the “majority party” would lose their seats but for bizarre gerrymandered districts, some geographies of phantasmagorical mien.

The 2012 Mob Ploy

During the 2012 election, drug cartel kingpin Mitt Romney received over $1 billion in “contributions,” much from narcotics, human trafficking and gambling backers.

Prior to the election, documents were released by sources within the FBI and Mexican intelligence agencies revealing that Mitt Romney, working closely with the Castro government and former members of Soviet intelligence services, managed hundreds of secret “slush fund” offshore accounts for key government and military leaders.

These accounts were funded through the generous contributions of the Mexican drug cartels and the CIA’s burgeoning narcotics operations in Afghanistan and Iraq.

This relationship, which some believed began with Carlos Salinas and Mitt Romney at Harvard, actually began generations before. The Bush/Romney financial partnership, built, initially on profits from Nazi war industries, now dwarfs even the Rothschild cartel for “funds under management.”

DHS, Neither “Home” Nor “Secure”

The Department of Homeland Security is an Israeli controlled organization tasked by the New World Order to infect every aspect of American society in lieu of a declaration of full martial law.

The Wanta, Reagan, Mitterand Protocols

As things are now, only the “Wanta trillions” can save the United States from the grip of the New World “Dis-Order.”

Keeping America ignorant of the truth about the “protocols” is vital to those who continue to bleed America dry.

At one time, speaking of a “trillion dollars” was considered absurd. In recent years, despite obfuscation, psychological operations, disinformation, propaganda and simply corrupt news “Imagineering,” the public has learned that banks created “funny money,” amounting to what is now estimated to be $5 quadrillion dollars.

That would be 5 million billion dollars or 5,000 trillion dollars.

Don’t worry, none of it is real. We call this money “derivatives.” $10 trillion of the US national debt is money “invented” to keep foreign banks alive that got confused, they were no longer able to tell their real from their phony cash.

They were considered “too big to fail.”

The largest “poke” of real cash in the world is money accumulated by Ameritrust Corporation, solely controlled by Lee Wanta, former Reagan White House Intelligence Chief.

A trading platform for world currencies, including and especially the Soviet ruble, eventually yielded a very real $27 trillion, of which nearly one third belonged to Wanta personally.

The rest was to be used to finance the future of the United States as a debt free nation in perpetuity. That wouldn’t be allowed!

The Wanta cash is real. Most of the $27 trillion has long been distributed to Bush cronies, the international banking cartel that overthrew the US government and put “little Bush” in the oval office, much to the dismay of the human race.

Wanta sat in a Swiss dungeon as the Bush cartel plundered the birthright of the American people.

However, well over $7 trillion has been located and legally assigned for payment to Lee Wanta. Al Gore knows. The Pentagon knows.

The Bush family knows.

Federal courts have ordered the Department of Treasury and the Federal Reserve to remit the funds, now deposited with the International Monetary Fund.

Military leaders in the United States are hesitant to continue “sitting on their hands” with Wanta’s offer on the table, a massive pay-down of the national debt and broad private financing of massive public works projects in the United States.

The Ticking Clock

There is a war within our own government and military. The forces that would ask President Obama to step down from office voluntarily on constitutional grounds are, oddly enough, closely aligned with Secretary of Defense Hagel and Chairman of the JCOS, General Martin Dempsey.

They are, in fact, Obama supporters.

Against them are the very real forces of darkness, that “vast conspiracy” spoken of so many years ago by First Lady Hillary Clinton.

The “grand conspiracy,” the New World Order, is playing a new game, inventing wild conspiracies over Benghazi, a wild narrative of conjecture and fabrication intended to ensnare those who are stupid enough to accept “facts” from corporate controlled media.

While this dance continues, America is either being dragged into world war over Syria or, through failure to show leadership, will be supplanted throughout the Middle East and Central Asia by Russia and China.

America is, it seems, addicted to its own lies.

While the clock is ticking, maybe ticking away America’s final hours, will oaths be kept, will courage take hold, will bold and daring action confront the monster that has been feeding off so many of us for so long?

Jamestown is part of the American Committee for Peace in Chechnya, which began in 1999 when the Neocons were rolling out their new post Cold War replacement plans. The membership is a Who’s Who of American elitist imperialists, with of course Ziggy Brzezinski as chairman. It is filled with Jewish Lobby Zionists and the pre-emptive strike crowd, and national security threats to everybody. They should be in jail.

As I type the claims and counter claims of who co-opted and manipulated who continue. The public can no longer remember bomb drill or Craft Security and the massive security failure in allowing two kettle bombs to be walked into the finish line area of the Boston Marathon.”

The manhunt for the suspected Boston bombers has ended…sort of. Now America’s great game of ‘Pin the Tail on the Donkey’ cranks up as to who to blame for motivating the Tzarnaev brothers. The purpose of all this of course, is to distract searching for the real culprits.

The whole horrid event has become a hundred ring circus of self appointed performers. You have people claiming that some of the victims were actors, without explaining to us why wouldn’t the all first responders and volunteer triage medics have reported who the fakes were. Were they all hypnotized or something?

The flood of false flag theories became almost like a sweepstakes where last minute buyers jostled each other to grab any that had not yet been claimed. Much of this was due the deluge of photographs so quickly uploaded onto the Internet which were available for instant detectives to interpret for us. Although most was non malicious, much of it was silly.

As Iranian academic Dr. Salami with his Phd in Shakespearean studies would say, “Aye, there’s the rub!” The well meaning amateur ‘who done it’ analysis was quickly followed with an organized cover and deception effort by professionals, the usual suspects, who have done this before.

There are always two key aspects to modern day false flags. First you have to make sure that initial coverage does not focus on any key clue threads which would point in the right direction of who the real culprits were. And second, you have to flood the public airwaves with as many crazy claims as possible so the public becomes numbed out to paying attention to any real revelations that might come out that are true. What we call controlled opposition always plays a key roll here.

Two key issues are firmly in the rear view mirror of the Boston bombings.

The first is how quickly and effectively the confirmed bomb drill was erased from the story. This was legitimate fuel for conspiracy theories because it does takes a conspiracy to do this.
